I thought it'd drop off but it doesn't, not the fat part. The extra water goes. the steroids do put fat on you. They also put your appetite into overdrive. When I wasn't wanting to die of nausea or actively hurling, I felt like eating constantly. I went through a ton of celery but people would bring me treats as well and I couldn't resist. It's only 15 lb but my clothes don't fit!! And I hate shopping. I ordered a couple of skirts online so I wouldn't scandalize people at work but otherwise, the weight has to go!
'Easy keeper' is horse lingo, I think - it means I can maintain my weight with very little fodder.
